Abstract :
In this paper, a new synthesis method for parallelcoupled line bandpass filter is presented. Design formulas are derived for a third-order bandpass filter with arbitrary coupledline image impedance. These formulas are more accurate than the conventional method to address the prediction bandwidth. Third-order parallel-coupled bandpass filters are designed and simulated to validate the theory.
